Temp files not deleted after drog-drop

Reported by: Gipster Owned by:
Component: drag and drop Version: VirtualBox 6.1.18
Keywords: Cc:
Guest type: Windows Host type: Windows

Description

During dragging-dropping files from a (windows) VM to a (windows) host, a temporary directory is created in "C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\Temp\VirtualBox Dropped Files"

After this, the files are copied to the selected destination dir. Unfortunately the temp dir is not being deleted after this action, causing the host drive to fill up (and potentionally crash the host because of a full system drive).

Could this deletion-after-coppying be included?

Does the "VirtualBox Dropped Files" directory also contain old (stale) files, or is it just an empty directory? Which Guest Additions are installed?
